Podcast: A Conversation with iVideoSong's Tim Huffman

Tim Huffman is a man with many stories, and one terrific company. At first blush, the company blends in with a lot of other video and audio purveyors on the Internet, offering paid downloads of music related video. What they've actually developed at iVideoSongs, though, is a unique blend of audio and video that provides not only entertainment value but a serious amount of utilitarian value as well.

Kristen reviewed the service back at DEMO in January:

The goal here is to teach you how to play music accurately, while still giving you the control over your music lessons. iVideoSongs is working with the content owners (i.e. record labels) to get DRM-free benefits that can be extended to the users. That means you can play lessons on your computer, your iPod, or wherever. Lessons can be purchased for about $4.99.

I sat down with CEO Tim Huffman, talked a bit about his personal history (it involves a Grammy!), and the unique and unintended aspects of his company's work that have arisen since he's started.
